	answer	answer answer text <p>The Cricket World Cup final, semi-finals and matches involving home nations’ teams are listed under Group B of the Listed Events Regime. Events listed in Group B may have live coverage on subscription television provided that secondary coverage is offered to qualifying broadcasters.</p><p> </p><p>Coverage of women’s professional sport on free to air television has improved significantly in the last ten years, with the FIFA Women’s World Cup and Euro Championships, Women’s Rugby World Cup, cycling and tennis being regular fixtures on the BBC and ITV.</p><p> </p><p>We know that more can be done to improve equality in sports broadcasting. That is why we have just announced our proposal to add the Paralympic Games to the list and we have started the statutory consultation process to do that. We are also considering the addition of women’s only sporting events where the equivalent men’s only tournaments are currently listed, which we plan to consult on later in the year. This is to give equal recognition to disabled and women’s sports.</p> question first answered 30/07/2019 12:22:17 answering member 4703

	answer	answer answer text <p>The government wants the UK to be the safest place in the world to go online. As set out in the Online Harms White Paper the government will take action to tackle content or activity that harms individual users, particularly children. We will establish a new statutory duty of care, overseen by an independent regulator to make companies take more responsibility for the safety of their users and tackle harm caused by content or activity on their services. The regulator will take a risk-based approach, prioritising action where there is the greatest evidence or threat of harm, or where children or other vulnerable users are at risk. Ahead of the implementation of the new regulatory framework, we will continue to encourage companies to take early action to address online harms.</p><p> </p><p>With regards to the social media application TikTok, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has a live investigation on TikTok’s compliance with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) relating to the protection of children’s personal data. The GDPR is regulated and enforced by the independent ICO, and as such, the government is unable to comment further on live investigations.</p> question first answered 12/07/2019 12:29:39 answering member 4247

	answer	answer answer text <p>In 2016, the creative industries employed 2 million people and made up 5% of the UK’s total GVA. Securing a strong and diverse intake of skills and talent is key to the sector's continued success and that is why Government is committed to ensuring children enjoy a broad curriculum, including music. Recognising the importance of music, the Government is spending £300m between 2016-20 on music education hubs alongside a range of other arts and cultural educational programmes. In January 2019, DfE announced an additional £1.33 million funding for music education hubs and that an independent panel would be working with Government to create a model music curriculum.</p><p> </p><p>Sir Peter Bazalgette's 2017 independent review of the creative industries concluded that social and informational barriers to entry are inhibiting the growth and greater productivity of the sector. That is why government is investing £2m seed funding for the industry-led Creative Careers Programme, aimed at raising awareness of employment opportunities and developing entry routes into the creative industries, including the music sector.</p> question first answered 18/06/2019 15:16:38 answering member 4247

	answer	answer answer text We welcome the improvement in the UK’s ranking, but are disappointed that our position is not higher. The UK press is among the most respected and free in the world. The government recognises press freedom is fundamental to a healthy democracy and strongly supports it, including committing to repeal s40; publishing a world leading independent review on the sustainability of high quality journalism by Dame Cairncross; and launching a Global Media Freedoms campaign.<p> </p> question first answered 29/05/2019 13:06:55 answering member 4247

	answer	answer answer text <p>Children whose gambling is associated with other addictions or mental health issues can access treatment for those conditions in NHS primary and secondary care. In addition, dedicated treatment for gambling disorders is commissioned by the charity GambleAware. This includes the National Gambling Helpline and a national network of treatment services which are accessible across Great Britain. Most people accessing services are over 18 but they are available to people of any age, including young people. GambleAware also funds the NHS National Problem Gambling Clinic, with a second clinic due to open in Leeds in April 2019.</p><p> </p><p>GambleAware’s delivery plan for 2018-20 aligns with strategic priorities set by the regulator, the Gambling Commission, and its expert advisors on research, education and treatment, the Responsible Gambling Strategy Board (RGSB). The delivery plan includes developing and promoting a ‘knowledge hub’ of resources and guidance for teachers and those who work with young people, as well as working with agencies that support young people’s mental health and supporting parents to have conversations with children.</p><p> </p><p>Schools are expected to promote the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of pupils and some teach about gambling and addiction as part of their Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education. The non-statutory PSHE programme of study, published by the PSHE Association, includes teaching about gambling (including online) and its psychological and financial impact.</p><p> </p><p>The Department for Education’s consultation on Relationships, Sex and Health Education, including draft content on online behaviour and mental wellbeing, closed on 7 November. The Department is currently analysing responses to the consultation before finalising regulations and guidance.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p> question first answered 19/12/2018 16:47:41 answering member 4247

	answer	answer answer text <p>Ofcom, the independent broadcast regulator, takes the protection of children and young people very seriously. Ofcom’s Broadcasting Code contains stringent rules to ensure that under eighteens are effectively protected from harm.</p><p> </p><p>The Broadcasting Code and guidance advises broadcasters to various ways they can warn audiences about graphic content or content likely to offend. In addition, there are a range of audience protection tools, including programme scheduling information, mandatory PIN protections, as well as the 9pm watershed, that parents and guardians can use to ensure that children are protected from broadcast content that is unsuitable for them.</p><p> </p><p>The watershed is an effective way to protect children from unsuitable content. A recent Ofcom survey found that 60% of parents think 9pm is the right time for adult content to be shown on television and that 89% of people understand what the watershed is. However, protections do not cease at 9pm. The transition to more adult material must not be unduly abrupt and the strongest material should appear later in the evening.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p> question first answered 19/12/2018 16:46:28 answering member 4247
